Gunn Mowery, LLC Named IIABA’s
Best Practices Agency
JAZZ ME
Gunn Mowery, LLC has been recognized by the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America (IIABA) for the seventh time as a
Best Practices Agency, a report recently revealed.
Public Performances:
The award identifies independent insurance agencies nationwide for
outstanding performance in the areas of customer retention, growth,
stability and financial management. Gunn Mowery, LLC was also just
recently recognized as “Simply the Best Insurance Agency” in Harrisburg Magazine.
Only 254 independent agencies throughout the U.S. qualified for inclusion in the 2016 Best Practices Study. More than 1,800 agencies were
nominated this year.
“We are very proud to be again selected as one of the United States
Best Practices Independent Insurance Agencies,” says Greg Gunn,
Managing Partner. “To be a part of this
elite group of 254 firms out of a universe of over 30,000 agencies nationally is quite an honor. This inclusion allows us to benchmark our
operation against the nation’s best and to be a part of the discussion
on how our industry can constantly adapt and change.”
The Best Practices Study was initiated by IIABA in 1993 as the foundation for efforts to improve agency performance.
